    Given the school I went to (Robbinsdale Cooper), and the schools my friends went to (Totino Grace, Robbinsdale Armstrong, Benilde-St Margeret's), I'm surprised more pregnancies didn't happen. It was honestly a rarity. Of course, that could also be a generational thing, I don't know.
    Never really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.

      Well, if you go to work you're not a Millenial.

        I should note Midwestern bias here, as the coasts seem to have a longer history of this practice. In the midwest, it seemed like you basically got married right out of college, not later in life.
        Women get knocked up when they finish their education. In the Northeast that's 30. In the Midwest, 26. In the South it's 13.

          FTFY.

          It does seem the south does things at a younger age. Guessing it goes back a couple generations, due to farming/etc culture, similar to the midwest.

            The point is that a lot of gen x women are already hitting menopause while millennials are getting older than the old farts think.

            Many people who use millennials as a derogatory term think they're still teenagers. Most of them/us are not. The vast majority of teenagers are generation z.

              It was only in the 19th century with the rise of a middle class and perma-childhood that people waited until they were 20 or even 18. Through 99.99999% of human history it was 16-year old boys f-cking 13-year old girls. There wasn't even a concept of "teens" before then. You were a child until you became sexually able and then you were an adult.

                The Mils are pretty much all done with undergrad work. We're on to Gen Z as the lazy, spoiled teens now.

                  Agree. The Mills should be adulting right now. The Zs are full blown Mills on steroids.

                      Purely anecdotal. But I get your point and I think you’re probably right in general. It’s also probably better we’re waiting longer.

                        I go with Xenial. I'm 36. My husband likes to say he's gen X 'cause he was born in 1980. I was born in '82. I don't consider he and I different generations.

                        Going back to the gender reveal, I think it's stupid. Husband and I are having a human. Who cares what it's genitals are? Please don't push your societal views onto my child based on an X or Y chromosome. We did find out the gender, and I have told people, but no party and I hope people don't expect my daughter to wear a bunch of pink stuff and only play with dolls and not trucks.

                        And yeah, this "millenial" didn't get married until 34, and will be 37 (hubs will be 38) when our first child is born.
